Back from France/Belgium and back to work. So overall the french thing worked well. I also did the check-in in Brussels in french and luckily understood most of the unexpected 10 minute speech/explanation the receptionist gave me. In Brussels, reverting to english however was no problem at all at any place.
I can proudly announce that I haven't stopped my #200daysoffrench so far!
@windmills yup, me too! :)) I bought a new book, magazines and a crossword puzzle booklet, so I have new things to do :)
